chickenman 0 Posted February 7, 2002 That bridge would look extremely out of place in any of the islands!!!! Talking about bridges brings up another point.... THERE IS NO RUNNING WATER ON ANY OF THE ISLANDS. If you want bridges, they must cross something. Quiet village to village roadways would not warrant an over pass. Bridges must cross water if it is to be realistic (Even if it is crossing a canyon, there is normally running water at the bottom??). I want bridges. It would be brilliant. But you'd need running water, and basically a new island. And railways, like someone else said. The two would create a million more scenario's....

WKK Gimbal 0 Posted February 8, 2002 sadly that would require an engine change. currently the maps cannot have polys under eachother, ie the landscape is created by vertical displacement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustinCase 0 Posted February 8, 2002 What if bridges are treated in the same way as houses? I mean, you can walk in houses right? This overlapping polygon problem could be overcome then no? Maybe vehicles couldn't cross it then? only infantry? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems like it would be possible to make bridges or even caves by using non-landscape objects, altough the performance might be very bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
